Nagios 5.0.0 Restore backup

[Maxwellb99]

Hi guys,

Has anyone else had problems restoring Nagios from backup?

Here's the start of the restore
Backup files look okay. Preparing to restore...
Shutting down services...
Restoring directories to /...

It looks like the issue is related to apache not having the SSL cert. In the backup you restore from, are you able to see this file present?

Also - with this being a custom folder, it may not be applied on a default Nagios backup. I think XI covers the /usr/local/nagiosxi/var folder, but not completely sure if it is recursive to cover the certs folder.

Was the backup from pre - 5.5.0 ?
